From a Times Staff Writer

A Santa Ana broadcasting company has purchased KRTH-AM for $23 million in an all-cash deal and plans to change the Los Angeles station’s format from oldies rock ‘n’ roll to Spanish-language musical programming.

Liberman Broadcasting Inc. is the surgeon who will separate KRTH-AM from its twin, KRTH-FM, both of which are owned by Beasley Broadcast Group of Naples, Fla. Liberman owns and operates KWIZ-AM and FM, which are based in Santa Ana.
